Recently, former Daegu Mayor Hong Joon Pyo has been increasing his comments on Shincheonji (Shincheonji Jesus Church of Jesus Evidence Tabernacle) as he has revealed a series of internal party ideologies of the people’s power in the past.
In particular, as the Joint Investigation Headquarters, which investigates the alleged collusion between the Unification Church and Shincheonji, accelerated, former Mayor Hong seems to be unraveling the related facts to explain it.
According to political circles on the 22nd, Hong suggested on his SNS account the previous evening, “The puppet party that moves according to the orders of the leader of similar religious groups should no longer disappear from Korean politics.”
He explained, “If you check the list of 190,000 new members who joined the party from May 2021 to the primary race, and compare the list of Shincheonji members, you will find out immediately how many Shincheonji members were among the 1,000 won members per month at the time.”
“I’m looking at whether the 110,000 people that Kwon Sung-dong, the general manager of Yoon Suk Yeol, openly boasted in media interviews at the time were the Shincheonji church members that Lee Man-hee said,” he said. “It is possible that Kwon Sung-dong made a Yoon Suk Yeol using Shincheonji and attracted the Unification Church the following year when he tried to run for the party leader himself.”
“If you compare the list of unification believers with the list of party members, you will get the answer right away,” he said. “That’s why the party resisted the special prosecutor’s seizure and search of the party membership list.”
He added a firm stance on religious intervention in politics. “The manipulation of internal elections by similar religious groups should no longer be tolerated,” he said, “because it is a violation of the constitution and anti-democratic.”
